A “short comedy about a voiceover actor trying to nail the right tone for a pair of indecisive ad creatives selling a fictitious children’s ice cream brand. Or is it a short tragedy about a pair of ad creatives trying to coax the right tone out of a distracted voiceover actor?”

I’ve worked on these kind of ad sessions. While this is funny, it is also very, very true.

Also I don’t know if any of you have seen any of the Actors on Actors videos posted by Variety, but there are several really good interviews there. I recommend this one, for starters. They’re engrossing and fascinating.

“On the coast of Norway, Kjell Robertsen uses some bread to get some GoPro close-ups of seagulls. Over 5 months later he found his camera so we can all see what happens when you accidentally make a seagull drone.”

Fantastic!

There have been many of these “camera thief” wildlife videos but never with this kind of data analytics overlaid on it.
